What type of heat transfer occurs when you get a sunburn?
RadiationNot really. Sunburn is not caused by heat at all, but by overexposure to ultra-violet (specifically UV-B) radiation. It causes damage directly to the DNA rather than heat damage to the skin.While the answer 'radiation' is technically correct as UV is a type of radiation, sunburn is not caused by heat transfer at all.
Is heat radiation called infrared radiation?
yes, heat radiation is called infrared radiation
Another name for heat radiation?
INFRARED RADIATION is also referred to as Heat Radiation.
What actually happen during heat radiation process?
In the heat radiation process heat radiates. I'm sorry, you'll need to be more specific, since I really can't think of how to put it in much simpler terms than it already is.
Can Ultra violet radiation can be felt as heat?
No. It is infrared radiation that can be felt as heat.
Why is radiation of heat larger in a black surface than a white surface?
A black surface absorbs the heat radiation and a white surface reflects the heat radiation
What is an example of transferring heat through radiation?
The earth receives heat from the sun as radiation
How can heat produced using radiation?
Heat is both radiation and the vibration of atoms/molecules.
How is heat transferred through space?
heat is transfered through space by radiation.
What is a radiation heat?
Radiation heat is heat that comes directly off its source in a straight line. For example heat coming off the sun.
What heat transfer is used when a fan is blowing?
Actually, there isn't any heat transfer when a fan is blowing. But, if you really need the answer, the closest one would be radiation.
how is heat transmitted by radiation?
Radiation is a method of heat transfer that does not rely upon any contact between the heat source and the heated object as is the case with conduction and convection. Heat can be transmitted through empty space by thermal radiation often called infrared radiation. This is a type electromagnetic radiation .
